1) Keep picking Kevin Davies despite him being past it for at least two seasons
2) Sign players but don't pick them
3) Pick Zat Knight every week despite him being the fucking problem. Ditto Bogdan
4) We play shit but the manager thinks we were ace
5) We never seem to "click" or play well
6) Most importantly, WE DON'T WIN MANY MATCHES
Unfortunately true on all accounts!

You forgot to mention:
Both managers are Scottish
Both managers had to cope with a massive cutback in budget and salaries
Both managers had to work with a less talented squad
Both managers had to put up with a set of deluded fans that still have premiership expectations despite the bleeding obvious
And both managers still had to publicly show support for their players even though they know they are not necessarily premiership quality

Be honest, are you on the staff at BWFC? Whatever happens you always side with the manager and players.

There are plenty of differences too,

As soon as Dougie arrived he said how poor the players fitness was (Coyle's poor training) having identified that and changed it we nick late goals as opposed to conceding them.

He plays his signings (number 2 on your list is 'utter bollocks') Dawson, De Ridder and C Davies all played on Saturday.

He's defensive minded, something everyone was crying out for during Coyle's reign

He's flexible tactically.

He's signing players for the future (not just saying he wants to like Coyle), improving our development squad and therefore the improving the likelihood of players making the step up in future.

He gives more honest assessments of the game than Coyle who would use the same tired cliches each week.

Shown good man management with Sordell.

He's still inexperienced and has a long way to go, but he has plenty of positives many fans choose to ignore. To say he's the same as Coyle is just incorrect and lazy.
